Powershell Universal 3.2.6 - Dashboard fails to start

PowerShell Universal
1

I just upgraded from PSU 3.2.2 to 3.2.6, and a previously working dashboard fails to start with the errors below… I did not have this issue upgrading it from 2.11.1 - 3.2.2. I decided to update from 3.2.2 because I could not get New-UDDataGrid to work (even using the examples from the documentation)

I ended up removing version UniversalDashboard 3.13.1 from the modules folder (leftovers from updating I’m sure)…

This is running in this environment…

I then tried switching it to the Integrated environment, and it worked. Only problem with this is my dashboard has some pretty intensive Endpoints, so I’m using a separate environment per Best Practices…

There was also this while trying to run a test job…

I then went to uninstall 3.2.6, and saw 2.11.1 was still listed as installed. I uninstalled 2.11.1 and 3.2.6. After reinstalling 3.2.6 it seems to be working…

Not sure why this particular version had a problem, but it seems to be resolved.
